C'mon dudes, there has to be some of you still out there with this "old" hardware. I need someone to tell me how they're athlon 1.4Ghz shows up in the bios and if they can overclock with FSB.

Does an Athlon 1400 multiplier show up int the bios as "12.5 and above" but is actually a 14x multiplier? I was skeptical about modifying the processor because i see a 1400 option but with fixed FSB settings...not good... I want a 14x multiplier and FSB adjustment....Help!!!!!

I wasn't sure because abit says the board only supports 1400s with L1 bridges open. The 1200 i have now has all the L1 bridges closed. So if i open them i wasn't sure i would still be able to overclock with FSB. Just sounds kind of funny to me i guess.

I currently have an Athlon 1200@1456 on a Kt7-Raid. I have ran it at 1500 but the fsb is a little too high and it causes some stability issues. If I physically make this processor seem as a 1400 by opening/closing bridges will the bios assign a 14x multiplier so that i can still increase the FSB...

i had the idea of using Award's modbin6 to create my own multipliers. anyone used that?

Mine is using 13x now but how can i get a higher one? the 5x multiplier doesn't do anything......

how do i get multipliers above 12.5 in bios? i'm still not sure how an athlon 1400 would work. i have latest bios installed. i can't get my 1200 athlon past 1500Mhz because of FSB limitations. i need multipliers above 12.5......any ideas????????

i would like some vendors that sell amd processors by batch number like Atacom.com. i am looking for a Tbird 1200@ 200Mhz fsb. with axia or ayhja batch coding. thanks ya'll

Thanks for the replies guys. I did install the cooler very carefully and look at its position. That particular clip is more offset than the one i had so it creates more room for error and it may have been resting on the socket causing it to not sit flush on the core. The Proc. has no physical...

I thought that artict silver II is very conductive and is one reason cpu shims are available.

I installed a thermalright sk6 on an athlon 1k and it was slightly tilted when i booted. This was on an Abit kt7-raid. I think the cooler touched one of the raised conductive parts of the proc. while booting, anyway i could smell the thermal compound before the system shut itself down. i tried...

wondering if i can get the most of my mobo by running a 266fsb athlon on it. not sure if it will run underclocked if the chipset is unable to run at full speed. any ideas?

i was wondering if i can get the most out of my mobo by running a newer 266fsb athlon underclocked if it's unable to run at full speed or should i just stick with overclocking 200fsb athlons.

i'm wondering if the kt133 chipset will run at 266mhz fsb if i unlock the processor. i'm wanting to overclock it but am not sure the chipset will run the default speeds.
